Small-Minded People

Just how small can small-minded be? Small-minded is that thing you see That walks with small steps constantly But goes nowhere you want to be. Small are their own small-minded thoughts That resonate from nil to naught And traverse in small-minded ways Self-centered trips through sterile days. Small are the hopes and dreams they claim Which lose perspective frame-by-frame. It's just a small-time picture show That demonstrates how less they know. Short-sighted is small-minded's friend like two absurds placed end to end. They primp and preen to their content, Nothing to flaunt - not gained nor lent. And, small minds are far-sighted cursed That go from bad to worse to worst. For them far-sighted, heaven knows, Is that which lies just past their nose. The small-minded have egos too But lose sight of what, why and who. They rumble in small-minded ways And shuffle through a self-made maze. Some with small minds resolve to see A "heads will roll" philosophy But if they did what there would be Is their own mindless entity. The small-minded do not go far. They like to think how great they are But when it comes to finding fame Just side show stuff - a no name game. If you meet small minds on the street Don't call them out but just repeat Small minded's slogan of their ilk: "Small-mindedness is Mother's Milk."
